As a nurse for over 30 years I actually was very honest with my patients
Yeah. I am honest too. The people are less angry, when you tell the truth
Thank you, I love the honest ones more than anything, I don't even care if you're blunt or abrupt about it, I just want it straight ❤️
I’m in nursing school and I still tell my patients the honest truth, I would want to know! I wouldn’t want the pretty answers, just tell me exactly what’s going on and I will understand!
There is an ethical principle where we have to practice fidelity, telling the patients the truth. I'm honest with the patient, but I try to be polite about it.
Thank you 🥹 stuff like this makes it even harder for me to go to the doctors, I have bad medical anxiety from traumatic stuff that's happened at hospitals

@@Jake-gs6yl that’s a power comment!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
i always appreciate 100% honesty on wait times because it determines if I'm watching shorts or 2 hr thesis videos while I wait.
Yeah. The difference for me is if I ask for a blanket and fall asleep, or do I sit there and watch TV?
😂😂😂 So me!
True, I might pay bills online or start reading, if I have a long wait. I don't bother to crack the book, if it's less than a half hour wait. It annoys me to get started reading, to be interrupted quickly. I'm a nerd woman. 😂
Well working in the ER you honestly can’t even estimate the wait times
When they not only don't call back but also give you the wrong number to call
Yep! As a scheduler I would recommend you call your Primary Care Dr yourself and schedule in the time frame the ER wanted you to go. 😂(Er f/u in 3-6 days with primary or Cardio etc…)
lmao
@staceyga1 Ha they won't schedule you in the needed time frame. I needed stitches checked for infection. They gave me a month out.
Been there, done that
@@NoThankUBeQuiet 😳😳 omg! I’m so sorry to hear that!!!! Now usually with us if the timeframe is unavailable then we get the facility itself involved to get the patient in. 🙁
Fun story:
The nurse said “the doctor will be in shortly” but really he came in 9 hours later 💀
DAMN
I was going to comment that I'd be thrilled if it only took 3 hours most times
Nah they definitely completely forgot
😂😂😂
Are any doctors going to comment as to why? I know I was in an elevator with a doctor recently and I saw them have a panic attack once. It was wild 😐
Thanks for discouraging me from going to a hospital
Guys, my mom was working as a medical nurse and she told me so much stories so you can very really belive that when nurse say “it happens, don’t be embarrassed” they most likely mean “oooohhhh brother i have seen wayyy worse” so you are welcome.
Very true!
Thanks for bringing back my medical anxiety 💀
1 more person like this please-
When you go in, expect all these things to be true and then you have less worry and you won't be disappointed, right? Because you already know it won't be fun. What's the worst that can happen? You get a really mean nurse? Even if that happens, you're allowed to tell the front desk you want a new nurse. They might make you wait, but you're not a prisoner.

"Don't worry it won't hurt"
What they mean:
*It will hurt a lot*
If you tell your patients that you'll call to follow up but don't, that's sh¡tty. Periodt. Their health problem could turn into something really bad. Instead, have them schedule the follow-up appointment before they leave. That's how most doctors offices operate. Good ones, anyway. Remember everyone, ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF! No one cares about your health more than you.
Yes. After new pros settle in, they don't care about you personally. You become "a hip," a knee," the stroke," etc.
Almost all cases it’s because they’ve simply forgotten. Nurses and doctors in the ER can see hundreds of patients a day on their shift, and they’re not going to always remember which patient needs a follow up, especially if a sudden emergency happens that needs attention.
Everyone knows how overworked hospital staff are, as patients we could be more understanding of these things. It’s not going to inconvenience us too much to schedule the appointment ourselves instead of complaining that the staff didn’t remember for you.
@@Lena-zn4re While I realize healthcare workers are overworked (trust me, I have family members in medicine), there's no reason why they can't make a note to follow up with the patient or at least remind the patient to follow up. There's no excuse not to have a reliable system. Case in point, in 2014 I got an MRI for facial pain, at the request of my neurologist. They never called me back for the results, so I called them. His office assistant assured me everything was fine. Five years later, I have a debilitating bout of vertigo, which I thought was odd, as I also had one in 2013. My new doctors recommended another MRI, which showed I have MS. Even worse than getting that diagnosis was finding out I had it for at least a decade. "But my 2014 MRI came back normal," I stammered to my neurologist. She looked in the online system and found my earlier MRI results. "The radiologist report says you had it then," she said. Five years. For five years I was in the dark. For five years I didn't have treatment because my previous neurologist didn't take my symptoms seriously (even though I told him my grandma had MS). For five years my MS progressed and wrecked more havoc on my brain, because his office was disorganized. I realize people make mistakes, but that's even more of a reason to have a better system for keeping patients informed. Their patients' health and lives depend on it.
@@Lena-zn4re and how do you know the staff forgot to do their job? By realizing that nothing happened after MONTHS. It's not hard to schedule follow up appointments right away, that way the nurses have it out of their hair and can focus on the hard parts of their job.
But not every patient knows that they need a follow up appointment, which is why it's not their job. And sorry, but I'm not going to do a job I'm 1.not getting paid for, 2.never going to choose in the first place for obvious reasons
"I'll check with the lab and see where we're at with those results."
"I'll go give your samples to the lab now because I forgot."
Or "yeah, it's been nowhere near long enough with the backog"
😂
Follow up: “our lab has been really buzzy so we’re gonna need to keep you one more night”
“We couldn’t determine anything from our tests”
Mine? They have to resample, again. 😂
Definitely, that part! 😂😂😂
Whenever I say to a patient they don't need to feel embarassed, I'm being honest. A person feeling at their weakest point needs our understanding and compassion, not our judgement.
Honestly the comment he made about how we should be embarrassed is making my anxiety around medical professionals worse since i was already afraid about being judged
@@coda1235 I understand your feelings but the way I see it, when a health care worker makes a patient feel embarassed about something, it speaks volumes about said worker character. You aren't the problem, their character is. So please, don't stop seeking professional help for fearing of being judge 🙏
When I say they don't need to be embarrassed I truly mean it. Because I have seen a variety of completely messed up stuff. And I just don't care anymore. I don't want to carry that image home with me. So when I leave the job I'm not going to think about it when I get home. I mean it when I say don't be embarrassed because I'm not thinking about anybody when I get home.
@@jessierichardson1345 This. Especially when patients are embarrassed about needing to be changed because they soiled their brief. I'm like my friend, this is a Tuesday for me, I'm your nurse and it's my job to help you. I picked this job knowing everything that it entails, and so did every other nurse, so don't ever let anyone make you feel embarrassed about a normal bodily function that you need help getting cleaned up for.
same and 99% of the time i have seen the exact situation with other patients a million times
so they are liars and can't be trusted, exactly who i want in a medical field
😂
As a nurse, this video infuriates me. No, I don’t lie to my patients.
So happy to hear this. There is an arrogance to these videos. Another video where he is talking to another Nurse about wait times in ER and people’s expectations. Both are a little cynical and slightly unkind.
I am not blind to how difficult it is to work in the medical field so thanks for helping people!
@@ballroombaby13 You must be one of the few. I had a male nurse stand guard at the door so my husband who was vomiting blood and I could not leave. I had to call 911, and the poor operator yelled at me not to hang up because she could hear another screaming male nurse yelling at me to hang up immediately. She sent eight huge beautiful firefighters up to rescue us! Never been so thankful in my life to see firemen. You should have seen all the attending staff run! It was then that I realized you could NEVER trust anyone in a hospital.
@@hrose5484 Cynical and unkind. Exactly how many medical professionals act in the ER. Not ALL, just MANY. I have been on the receiving end taking my poor sick elderly mother to ERs. This is actually a mildly funny version. Real life is actually much worse.
"Why do you never go to the doctors?"
Because I'm embarrassed!

@@cariwaldick4898 doesn’t seem like a joke.
@@ScizzoringGirlz It's sarcasm--which this creator does ALL THE TIME. I mean, he typically punctuates every phrase with M-F-, and sees the dark side of emergency medicine.
The biggest thing I learned having 3 nurses in the family is that they have seen all the body parts, they see them so often its like seeing your hand, if there's something wrong like an injury, THAT is their focus, not judging your anatomy. They might be a little more surprised to see something truly unusual, but their focus is always on getting you safe and comfortable asap. There's only so many things you can see up someone's rectum before its just another Tuesday.
I love this... I was in health care, and this is so true... I switched to the drugs people needed. More fun, body parts get bleak or too. "These are normal don't worry I've seen these anal-pustules of oozing green festering pulsating orbs, " "Oh the cause? Well, that's not my scope of practice, I need to let the Dr. explain that."😊... close the door...😮😮😮😮
Exactly, there's a couple of embarrassing stories I remember but there's no way I could ever tell you who those people were and what they looked like.
The end caught me off guard😂😂
Ummm, yeah. Having "seen it all" before is why Playboy, Penthouse, and all p**n producers have gone out of business because most people have "seen it all" before.
That last sentence right there is it. I probably have seen it, I don't care and I will reassure you it's nothing to be embarrassed about. Until it comes to your rectum and you are in the ED for the 3-4 time with something unique up there. Maybe a little embarrassment would be in order. Especially if it was the kind that would get you to stop before you perforated you intestines and need major surgery. (And yes that does happen)
And this video's pretty much what my anxiety does to me in regards to going to a doctor, you've only justified my fears. Thanks!
He hasn't been an ER tech in many years now, and he wasn't one for longer than a couple of years. What he's saying shouldn't be taken seriously at all.
@@rachelfox8108I appreciate you
The local hospitals must really love you
Man that first one is the reason I have medical anxiety
The first one isn't very accurate to me and I've been in nursing for over a decade. I've seen it all, and even if you manage to surprise me, I will do my best to try to make you comfortable. Please don't ever avoid getting medical attention because you're embarrassed.
i thought it was obvious that he was joking
Just don’t say anything
@user-js8xq3dg3h considering the second one seems accurate, it made me second guess if the first one was joking.
It's not super obvious
Don't worry, it happens to a lot of people💀
That first one is traumatizing, my dude
It issss ahhh
I never lie. I am always honest about how long it will take. “Yeah probably 10 minutes she’s busy looking at shoes I’ll try my best to get her in here”
the doctor will come before their shift ends😅
From an ACTUAL NURSE:
1. honestly- this actually DOES happen to everyone and we don't care.
2. The doctor is busy and we have no control over their presence. Take it up with them
3. We also have no control over follow up appointments, if its forgotten it's a clerical error and not the nurses.
Long story short - we have very little actual control over outcomes but we're always expected to
This is so good...more likely the nurses are going to be straight with you...
...and it's great to remind yourself they don't control over things
...they will to help, if they have time
@@zam6877😂😂😂😂
he's an actual nurse too
Not all of u are great. Fr I love great nurses who are definitely life savers but let's not pretend it's everyone.
@@debitopia hahaha WOW. I think you need to check yourself. You've apparently not really understood my comment at all and you REALLY don't understand healthcare or what a nurses role actually is.
1.When I say "we don't care" it not in the context of "not caring for your patient" it's in the context of "we're not going to judge you".
2. We aren't lying. We just have no control over them (guess you have trouble with reading comprehension?). We also expect the doctors to arrive in a few minutes, but do they? Not always. Of course we update our patients if this is the case, I never said we didn't. It sounds like you have a really poor concept of how the flow of healthcare works and how overworked most healthcare workers are. None of us are INTENTIONALLY making anyone wait. If tending to one person makes you 10 minutes late to see another, then thats just how the cookie crumbles. You can't blame staff for being late and then complain they need to care for "the entire patient" in the same breath without acknowledging there's other people that need care besides you.
3. Appointments are absolutely a clerical issue in most cases. This is highly dependent on where you work. In my case, in a large tertiary hospital, the nurses don't make the appointments. I have no access to the programs that schedule them. If I had any control over it or was able to influence it to benefit my patients of course I would.
As for your LPN comment. Firstly. My bachelors in nursing degree and 15 years nursing experience would argue otherwise. Secondly, the fact that you think LPNs are just "ass-wipers" shows a level of ignorance that absolutely astounds me. I bet you're the type of person who thinks fast food workers are somehow "beneath you". LPNs are incredibly hardworking and I'm certain their work makes more of a difference than whatever it is you do.
Have I dumbed it down enough for you? If not, let me know. I'm always happy to educate closed-minded people who obviously have no clue about the healthcare system.
Can we please stop shaming patients? It's not important how often it has happened, how "weird" it is or whatever. It's our job to make them better. Period.
Yeah he honestly has come off very condensing in alot of his videos - atleast to me

You know, it’s been a week since my doc was supposed to call to schedule me with a specialist. I should probably just do it myself 😂
This is more personal than true. Nurses and other health workers are usually honest about what they say. Thanks
This is why so many people wait to go to the hospital until they're literally dying. It's scary enough without the anxiety that the people who are meant to care for you, who are professionals, are laughing behind your back about your medical problems.
Believe me, no one is laughing, we are too tired for it
No one is. They lie to not make you feel embarrassed
Well if everyone went to the hospital every time they had the most minor injuries, the wait time would be terrible
I am honestly past bs'ing my patients. I explain that i am old, bitter and forgetful and we MUST work together. So i tell them to call to remind me 😂😂😂
I'm calling to remind you that you're old, bitter, and forgetful. I had to do this right away, before I forgot. ❤

If a doctor is taking forever to come in I’m usually grateful because I do NOT want to be that patient with a case so severe that the whole medical team stops what they’re doing to assist them 😭😭😭
"The doctor will be in in just a few minutes" Are you crazy?! They be taking YEARS just to get me a check up
Patients need and deserve honesty and compassion geesh
But if they tell the truth to the wrong people they get mad and lash out and sometimes start throwing things and other things plus you want to make them less scared so it’s easier
@@The_One_And_Only_RataYes but some of this is an outright lie. If you want the patient to call to follow-up, tell them. Don't make them wait for weeks for a call that isn't coming. You don't have to be as blunt as the video, but making a promise you have no intention of fulfilling that AFFECTS SOMEONE'S PHYSICAL HEALTH is just wrong.

I'm a nurse and I'm always honest with my patients. So are most of the nurses ive worked with. This just sounds like a mean person and mean nurse. I promise our internal dialogue is nothing like this and we never think you should feel embarrassed, and we really have seen everything before and it doesn't phase us, we just want to make sure you're okay and taken care of 💜
Cleary your not honest enough tell them the truth tour gonna treat them a little bit so they can come back and get milked for the rest of their money
@@papa.psychedelic. i don't understand what you're saying? I live in Europe where healthcare is free for everyone so I don't take any money. The majority of us are in this job because we care and want to help. I'd never lie to a patient and don't really understand why you would do that to a vulnerable person in your care.
@@papa.psychedelic.Lol, what? At least in American hospitals, we nurses gain nothing by treating you incompletely. They keep track of readmissions after discharge and all that stuff. If you’re, for example, trashing your liver/pancreas again after being treated fully for etoh abuse or don’t understand how your condition works, don’t blame us.
From what I’ve seen, 1 in 4 nurses is just plain mean, even got into the profession just to have power over people in weakened states, 1 in 4 nurses is negligent and couldn’t care less about the patients they’re supposed to be taking care of, and 2 in 4 nurses are overworked and exhausted.
Heard loads of bullying cases among NHS (the free healthcare system in the uk) between nurses and doctors. So nurses being judgemental internally is almost on the nice side of the spectrum lmao
Just replace nurse with computer tech, and you have IT in a nutshell.
"The Doctor will see you in a few minutes" =
"The Doctor that will actually see you hasn't even shown up to the hospital yet."
No matter how much they say it I will be embarrassed😭
Same! 😂
I’ve been there so many times half my local hospital knows me by name. That boat has sailed for me.
Yeah, please don’t be embarrassed, they’ve probably seen a person at your stage or worse 100s of times before. And if it is a bad case, healthcare professionals aren’t embarrassed for you or embarrassed about you, it elicits more sympathy than anything else. Then for us to remember you, you have to be like the most extreme case of all time, otherwise you disappear into the sea of 1000s-10,000s of patients they’ve seen in their career. And again, even if you were the worst case, we feel bad for you, not bad about you
Be embarrassed, just know that no one will remember because chances are something way more embarrassing happened to someone else that day.
Ah yes, that first one makes me feel sooooo much better 🙄
This is why people don't get medical attention for their embarrassing issues even if they get serious
The other ones are true but the first one definitely isn't. It's almost impossible to care about "embarrassing" stuff when you have to wipe other people's asses every day
The only time you ever need to feel embarrassed in front of nurses is if you did something beyond exceptionally stupid, like eating a tide pod because it looked tasty despite having a functioning brain. If you can't compete with that, whatever you were worried about will be forgotten as soon as you leave the room.
Listen imma shoot straight with you I work in an ED and I assure you, the “medical predicaments” you blush at mean NOTHING to me. You would need to put forth a tremendous amount of effort with a horrible imagination to even make a break room story, let alone get a reaction from me.
If you have the decency to be embarrassed, you are not embarrassing
Nah he’s joking. We don’t give 2 damns. There is nothing new under the sun. The only thing to maybe be embarrassed about is poor behavior toward staff or support people.
Even if it's true, why do you care? They're not making fun of you, they're saying exactly what you want to hear. You sound extremely sensitive.
@@sakurafalls2468And that comment just made you sound completely insensitive. How nice. I'm happy for you that you live a life where you don't care what anyone thinks about you, but the majority of humans do not function that way. Embarrassment and shame are normal emotions and it's okay to feel them. As long as it isn't to the level of OP who seems ro have such bad anxiety about it that it prevents them from proper medical care. But if, instead of positive encouragement to seek help, you think the best approach is to say 'get over your sensitive self' then that says quite a lot...
The last one is so accurate, I'm a Medical Spanish Interpeter and i've heard so many calls where the patient's saying "They said they would call me but I never got a call back"
Embarrassed? About what?? Ay-yo!
"Don't worry, the bruising is totally normal."
That is a shit load of bruising!
No, the bruising is because your nurse is inept or a petty piece of garbage.
LMAO that is so spot on, just made me remember when I had a shit ton of bruising from blood thinners but couldn’t see v well so when I asked my nurse he thought that I was freaked out and was like oh no, it’s fine! 👀 and then later when I looked in the mirror I was like yo wtf r those, “they’re not big at all” my ass LOL (I wasn’t mad, just thought it was funny)
I knew mine were bad from my first arm surgery because I didn't bring it up, but two techs, a doctor, and the Physician's assistant told me that!
"How is your literal entire arm purple?"
This is definitely true if you’re a bitter, cynical nurse. If you work at a great facility like I do, things DO get followed up on and we are very sincere with our patients.
Bro,s being honest af💀
Plot twist:
What the nurse is saying: your gonna be just fine.
What they actually mean: ur gonna die today ☠️💀☠️💀☠️😂
This video definitely makes going to the doctor more intimidating. I've got ADHD and I'm way too self-conscious and shy. Not only will I also inevitably forget to schedule a follow-up and be bored out of my mind in the waiting room, there's yet another reason to be embarrassed and self-conscious about whatever it is I'm seeing the doctor for.
Let me tell you something! As a nurse you see the WORST of the worst and most of the time you just want to do your job and go HOME! So honestly don't be embarrassed!
Natural selection will make you no longer worried.... And nolonger alive
@@Ay-mc8kz However, we want to do our job well, with compassion and alleviate our patient’s fear for the best outcome.
Honestly, I can't understand what Austin is getting at here. At least with the first bit
The medical staff probably _have_ seen the issue a hundred times before, and they're not gonna notice or care about the hundred and first time. I'm not a medical professional, so maybe I'm wrong, but every medical professional other than Austin seems to agree about that
And it makes sense. I mean… that's just how statistics work. Medical staff are going to spend most of their time working on stuff that they see all the time. And it's gonna be pretty rare that they have to work on stuff that's pretty rare
Anything becomes normal and unremarkable with enough exposure. Think about a parent changing a baby's diaper. I'm not a parent and I've never done it, so to me it seems gross and weird. But I know that by the time a kid is one year old, their parents will do it 5 times a day without even thinking about it
bro they don't care and gave seen worse
yay making ppl feel shame that they have health issues even though its your job 😍😍😍
me going to the doctors tomorrow: 😭✌️ wish me luck-
The search at the bottom is 'why are nurses so mean' 😭😭what
I've been to the emergency room so many times and not once have they ever scheduled me a follow-up appointment
You probably don't have good insurance that they can milk
ERs don’t do follow ups. You have to call your PCP for a follow up. If the ER is through the same company as your PCP sometimes they’ll send a follow up request to the PCP’s office for you but generally you just need to do that on your own.
When my lung collapsed I had to go to a special doctor, but that wasnt really a follow up appointment... Just somebody who could actually help me.
They expect you to go to your primary doctor.
I couldn't even get them to give me a referral
That first one... so excited to think about it in a future ER visit 😅
Bro I was just in the ER a couple days ago, this is so accurate!
Always respect the nurses
“You’re gonna be fine, it’s just a bit of pressure”
“Buckle up and kiss your ass goodbye.”
God forbid they tell you that there will be LOTS of “pressure.” Just get your will ready at that point lmao
This is so sad. I take literally what I was said, because I think this is reputable person thus they have rrsponsibility for their words.. And then I get really depressed to find out they lied and you can't trust even people you think you could trust
That last one is really fun when they say they'll get back to you for a followup on your adhd appointment and then dont and now it's been a month and we have no news and have difficulty initiating the followup
My mom is a nurse, and when she says it happens to a lot of people she means it!

"The Doctor will be here in just a few minutes" said no nurse ever, especially if the patient is asking.
The reason I avoid hospitals like the plague!! I've only gone once in 7 months, last year it was just twice.
I've not been since 2019
"Are you embarrassed?" oh no, do me a favor and do NOT tell me that. I need to be able to seek medical attention without getting PTSD 😂
i feel a lot better. thanks steve
The doctor will be with you in 1 - 3 business days
Trust is important when I work with patients. When I say I’ll do something, I do it. And I also update my patients on wait time.
:)
good for you?
lol i mean the dont be embarassed one could be true too. they do see alotta shit.
Half is from the prescribed meds
It is true, he is a controversial comedian, not a nurse. Nurses are not embarrassed of you or embarrassed for you
They do see a lot of shit, literally.
Bruh. I work in the ED if you think we care you’re too ambitious. You need to WORK to make us raise an eyebrow.
90% of your “embarrassing problems” are not even fit for a break room discussion
Thank you for making me feel better
Nah I felt the doctor not being in for 1-3 hours 😂
Thanks for making people feel better about themselves if I wasn’t insecure before I definitely am now 😊
I like the model where they set up your follow up at your current appointment. So much more efficient.
I always set yp my followup. Oh i dont need a pap for another three years? Lets get it in the books today thanks!
No kidding. I figured all this out when my mom got sick a lot in her later years and believe me, they never call and the dr shows after an hour if we’re lucky. For 5 minutes.
This perfectly sums up why i would trust a literal crackhead before i trust a doctor.
"Are you embarrassed?" Yes, I am actually, now I feel worse 😆
Don’t worry most nurses don’t think like that, this guy’s just weak
@@Justyouraveragechaosenjoyer yes absolutely! I would never want my patients to feel embarassed 😥 thats the last thing you want from someone helping you when you feel vulnerable and need Help.
Don't be. I've been a nurse over 25 yrs and this guy doesn't know what he's talking about. He's just trying to be a comedian on UA-cam. Bear in mind we can't control the doctors and what they do. We have to deal with them as well.
@@Justyouraveragechaosenjoyerkeep copeing but the definitely all judged tf outta you when you came in needing rectal foreign body removal 😂
@@Unpredictable21- okay now *that’s* different because they could have controlled that lol
4 months now and I'm still waiting on that call to schedule a follow-up 😭😭
Please call an remind them or make an appointment for yourself.
Just call them and schedule the appointment
Well now it's been 5 months, did they ever call?
yup, it's bullshit, its there job to make follow up appointments to monitor your progress but do they ever fuck, they dont care about patients
Depands on the hospital and what it's for. Sometimes I get told to call them up and other times, they do it for me as they know I don't like making the appointment and I have so many appointments
When I worked at a clinic, the doctor was either on time or missing without a trace.
This wont help the collective anxiety people have of doctor appointments
"You might feel a little pressure" translates to "this will probably hurt like hell" 😅
Im still waiting for the blood work order they said they will mail me from last month.
i think the blood is dry
I actually promise to call n I definitely forget..too. will remember when I see the pt ..still haven't studied the results too.. forgive us pls our pts..😅
@lotstodo Idk man that one may be because of the snail mail
@@ingridmonica1126 no, i wont forgive you for not doing your job. set reminders.
@@breanda Granted..it's also ur duty to call to ask for ur results..I don't call because I have lots of pts and also some don't evn answer their fones. Normal tests take less than 24hrs except culture tests and viral loads. So in three days come get ur results....it's ur responsibility. In our country we don't mail results too..
"Your blood pressure reads 81 over 140."
"I skipped medical school :D"
The 2 and 3 one got me on the floor😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
i’m convinced that nurses has seen so much that they don’t care anymore so don’t you worry and if you’re sick, just go to the nearest hospital despite what this man says. prioritize your health ❤
They are incredibly busy. They just get on with it. If something is weird or unusual they'll probably talk about it later maybe on a break or in a meeting but they are very kind and understanding. They already know many people get terribly embarrassed. They have been trained and have experience in this kind of situation.
Honestly i think in any job when you see crazy shit all the time, even if you havent seen *this* crazy shit scenario, youre just like "huh, anyway..."
If you want to prioritize your health, stay the hell away from doctors.
The vast majority of nurses I’ve seen could care less and only want their patients to be comfortable. This guy just thinks he’s funny so don’t listen to him
Thanks for saying this. I was worried people could take this video seriously and be embarrassed to go to a hospital when they need to.
Way to confirm all my fears 😂
"You're going to need stitches but don't worry it won't hurt"
"this will hurt like hell so just suck it up"
You forgot when they still charge you for the appointment you never scheduled
The fact that had surgery and the nurse was careful and honest really made things easier. So she told me that my doctor would arribes in one to two hours to remove my surgical drains. They were all honest with recovery and advice.
Bro the embarrassment part is gonna give me social anxiety 😢😂
Bruh my dentist straight up said "only 1% of the world has this
"Give or take 1-3 hours"
As in.. the Doctor may have already been here 3 hrs ago and told no one that we're waiting now for nothing..
